I love the pattern , I didn’t finish it yet. I am half way the dress.
The pattern was fun to do and although it took me a minute to figure out the crisscross, I loved it. I made it with an athletic knit…the pocket feature is perfect, and I will wear it on the golf course.
I bought this pattern specifically with the intention of modifying it to have ruching across the front like a shirt I bought in 2008 that is now too worn out to wear. I've never modified a pattern like this before, but it worked out great and I love the result! The only issue I had is that the sleeve openings came out wavy, but that's probably because of my modifications.
